Instead of updating your entire home every season, a few well-placed statement pieces can keep your home looking fresh, stylish, and up to date. This season, the focus is on texture, natural shapes, and stunning metals, all of which can be incorporated into your home through small, unique items. These 10 beautiful European homewares are sure to impress your guests and revitalise your home.

Kristina Dam Dual Vase Series

Kristina Dam Studio’s Dual Vase Series, featuring three beautifully minimalist mouth-blown glass vases, is nothing short of a stunning. In a range of sizes and tonal colours, these vases will elevate any room with their sculptural elegance. Style on their own, or as a cluster for extra oomph.

Menu Duca Candle Holder

Another must-have from our beloved Menu, the Duca Candle Holder offers a chic and elevated addition to any table setting. Cast in bronze brass, and detailed with rattan enfolded around its lower half, the simple yet impactful design brings a sense of intimacy and warmth to its surroundings.

Muuto Ridge Vase

A Scandi-favourite, Muuto, brings elegance and sophistication with their Ridge Vase. The ultimate statement piece for the understated design lover, its striking height and subtle ridged design is a definite eye catcher. The Ridge Vase offers a gorgeous way to display your favourite flowers, whilst working just as well as a standalone, sculptural piece.

Menu Carrie Lamp

Beauty meets function, plus a whole lot of Hygge, with Menu’s Carrie Lamp. Designed to mimic the ambience of candlelight, this totally portable and lightweight lamp presents endless possibilities. Use it as a bedside lamp for dinner parties, picnics, or a moonlit walk on the beach – the Carrie lamp has you covered.

Ferm Living View Tufted Rug

If you have a soft spot (pun intended) for beautiful rugs, the Ferm Living Tufted Rug will have you lusting. Crafted from supremely soft New Zealand tufted wool, this plush rug is the perfect touch of luxe. The geometric design, fringed-trim and tonal beiges lend to its artisan feel, sure to be a talking point in any home.

Ferm Living Pond Mirror

The Ferm Living Pond Mirror is straight up stunning. A marriage of form and beauty, the piece brings open and fluid forms into your home, taking the functional mirror into a drop dead gorgeous wall piece: true art. To up the ante, its curved edges are held by a slim, brass frame.

AYTM Curva Magazine Holder

AYTM’s penchant for luxurious materiality and striking design is exuded in their Curva magazine Rack. With its curvaceous lines and shiny brass finish, the humble magazine rack takes on a new life, adding a pop of glam we love and expect from AYTM.

Ferm Living Still Carafe

The Still Carafe from Ferm Living’s Still series is an example of minimalist beauty. The elegant, mouth-blown glass carafe is inspired by balance of form, and simplicity. Its unique, sphere-shaped glass stopper, sits like a weightless bubble of air, perched atop the vessel.

Alessi Kettle

Cult brand Alessi delivers, yet again, with the uber-sophisticated Plisse Electric Kettle. Designed by Michele De Lucchi, the kettle draws upon artistic design, architecture, traditional handicraft, and sculpture, resulting in something truly unique. With its pleated design and striking black finish, Alessi transcends the humble kettle to sartorial object.

Krof Collection No.1 24pc Cutlery Set

Aussie-founded Krof Collection bring sophistication to dining with their sleek, sculptural, and considered cutlery sets. Worthy at any design lover’s dinner table, these beautifully crafted instruments deserve a place alongside deliciously presented food. We love the gold set for the ultimate touch of luxury.

All these items are available from Designstuff, leaders in authentic Danish and Scandinavian homewares.

Designstuff open Melbourne store due to customer demand

No Comments on Table lamps Australia: From iconic to the affordable

More than simply a light source, a chic table lamp can be just the finishing touch a room needs. From iconic designs such as the Atollo and Tom Dixon’s Bell, to more affordable iterations, here’s our pick of the table lamp bunch.

Tom Dixon Bell table lamp in brass: Drawing inspiration from space helmets, this iconic lamp is one of the British designer’s most recognisable creations. The stylish design is available in chrome, copper and light black. $896.

west elm Modern Totem table lamps: Modernist ceramics meet functionality in this stylish and affordable statement-making lamp range that features bold, sculptural lines. From $149.

Trit House Zeke table lamp: Combining terrazzo, metal and glass, this design is the perfect addition to a modern interior. $90.

Atollo 238 table lamp, black: Designed in 1977, Vico Magistrett’s Atollo lamp is a cult classic that combines geometrical shapes (a cylinder, cone and hemisphere), for a bold yet refined aesthetic. It’s available in black, white and brass. $818.

Kmart rattan table lamp: With a five star rating and almost 50 online reviews, this rattan lamp is the perfect complement to a luxe coastal setting. Even better is its price! $29.

Kelly Wearstler Linden lamp: While the price tag is hefty, this design by American interiors maven Kelly Wearstler is fast becoming a modern design icon. It’s available in high gloss black or matte white. From $1199.

Dyson Lightcycle task desk light: One for the worker bees, the latest light from Dyson is not only sleek in design, but it’s engineered to support your body clock by auto-adjusting to surrounding light levels. The light also protects the eyes from glare and low optical flicker (two well-known causes of eye strain) and it switches off two minutes after you move away from it, cutting your carbon footprint and energy bills too. Slide-touch dimming and colour temperature controls let you completely customise the light to your preferences. $799.

The statement lamp: Why invest & our top five picks!

No Comments on The statement lamp: Why invest & our top five picks!

While we love a bargain, we’re also firm believers in splashing out on statement pieces too, should your budget allow. And while it’s not the first item that springs to mind when you think of a hero piece, the statement lamp holds an important place in modern interior design. But when a single lamp can cost up to five figures, is it worth the investment?

“I believe a statement lamp is definitely worth the investment. It adds extra character to a setting and is another element to assist in carrying through colours and finishes – brass accents for example. A cheap piece will only bring the rest of the setting down instead of adding life to a space,” says Andrew Algar, owner of Contents International Design.

Kelly Wearstler Linden table lamp, $2085

Chosen well (a neutral tone is usually a smart purchase), a good quality high-end lamp will give back many times over the years. “It is also a piece that, if invested in, can be utilised in other rooms down the line if you change your décor or move to a new house,” says Andrew.

Lee Broom clear crystal bulb table lamp, $585

And while there is amazing variety these days, as with any hero piece, you must make sure it doesn’t compete with the rest of the room. “If you were to keep the sofa, chairs, and table quite simple, a feature lamp will be the standout and lift the entire setting as well as providing much needed mood lighting too,” says Andrew.

Designed in 1977, Vico Magistrett’s Atollo lamp is a cult classic. From $1724

Like dark paint colour and bold prints, Andrew encourages you to dive right in when it comes to making the purchase. “Look for elements in a lamp that will accent something already in your room to help it carry through, and don’t be afraid to go over scale. If you’re investing in a feature piece you want it to be noticed!”

No Comments on Jen’s Lust List: 11.06.17

I love this super affordable set of four succulent drawings I spotted on Instagram. All 4 x A4-size prints for $34.95 from Handmadely. I think they look great grouped together in simple black frames. Affordable art at its best!

I’ve seen these tile-effect vinyl floor mats a few places now and they are really effective. Apparently they were all the rage at Maison & Objet. Designed in Israel by Maya Kounievsky, these ones are based on original tile patterns. Add interest to a hallway, a tiled effect to a bathroom, lounge, kitchen or outdoor terrace. Crafted from durable high quality vinyl, Beija Flor can be used indoors or out. Move them from room to room with ease and simply wipe them clean. Available in three sizes an many colours and styles. From $119 from French Bazaar.

Damian and I are both big fans of the Paul Smith fashion brand, as well as the classic Anglepoise lamp (two British icons!), so no surprises we are LOVING the latest collab between the two, which sees mini and giant versions added. Available in Australia through Cult, the mini is a very reasonable (in my opinion) $301, the standard is $370 ad the giant is one to save up for at $6,993.

I’ll be back with more finds next Tuesday!

Trending: 10 hot picks from the 2017 Stockholm Furniture Fair

No Comments on Trending: 10 hot picks from the 2017 Stockholm Furniture Fair

Scandi-design lovers will delight in some of the latest furniture pieces to come out of the recent 2017 Stockholm Furniture Fair. Considered the place to discover the latest in Scandinavian design, our friends at Fred International have compiled their round-up of the hottest pieces from this year’s celebration.

The Jord sofa, designed by Luca Nichetto for Fogia, is a next-level modular system with built-in table too. Offering endless seating configurations, we love this piece!

Designed by Studioilse for Made by Hand, the Sturdy stool pays homage to traditional Danish design details – the splayed legs for one. It’s a lovely, timeless design.

The La Pipe lounge chair, designed by Ida Linea Hildebrand from Friends & Founders has a stunning silhouette. Elegant from all angles, the chair has a beautiful rounded shape, gorgeous detailing and is comfortable to boot. This is our favourite pick.

Made from glass sheets and timber, the Big Sur table, designed by Simon Klenell and Kristoffer Sundin for Fogia, has mix and match glass layers for an unexpected twist.

Designed by Niclas Hoflin for Rubn Lighting, the Vouge floor lamp boasts an industrial-style perforated steel cylinder design that casts lovely, even light across the room. While we’ve seen perforated steel table lamps, this is the first floor one and it’s certainly a statement piece.

Perhaps the most retro of our picks, the Guest chair by Mönica Forster for Swedese uses elegant blonde bentwood combined with super soft leather to great effect.

Minimal and clean, the Conekt table by Mogen Lassen from by Lassen, features custom-made, visible L-shaped brackets that add an industrial edge to this solid design.

An unusual design, the Teelo 8020 table lamp by Secto Design is a sculptural piece that combines beautiful clean lines with blonde wood. The design means you won’t be blinded by a bare light bulb either.

Designed by Andreas Engesvik for Fogia, the elegant and timeless Dini sofa was inspired by sports cars – its moniker is a tribute to Marcello Gandini, the man behind the iconic Lamborghini Miura.

The Pond table, designed by Mönica Forster for Swedese, has a gorgeous organic shaped top that contrasts with its four reedy, straight legs.

IKEA’s science fiction inspired pendant wins a Red Dot Award

No Comments on IKEA’s science fiction inspired pendant wins a Red Dot Award

Having always been a huge fan of science fiction movies and video games, designer David Wahl was inspired to create the IKEA PS Pendant Lamp. And looking at it, it’s not hard to see its resemblance to a spaceship or an intelligent space weapon!

With a simple to use mechanism, all you need to do is pull the strings and the shape of the lamp shade as well as the intensity of the light changes. When closed, only a small amount of light finds its way out, while when fully opened, more light spreads out, creating interesting light effects on the wall.

Unique and affordable (just $69), the IKEA PS Pendant Lamp has now been awarded a Red Dot Award, one of the best-respected design awards in the world. Receiving ‘An Honourable Mention’ for its well-executed design work, thought-out design solution and mechanically simple but effective dimmer function; it was assessed by a 38 member jury among 4,928 other designs, representing 56 countries.

Better yet, the IKEA PS Pendant Lamp is easy to assemble, with no tools required. Just click the pieces together and the lamp is ready to float up high in the ceiling.

No Comments on Josh & Jenna’s latest range for Beacon Lighting combines metallics and raw materials

Beacon Lighting’s latest range from Josh & Jenna (of The Block and Reno Rumble fame), brings together a stunning array of beautifully proportioned shapes and silhouettes. Featuring high shine metallics, the beauty of raw materials and subdued colours, prices start from as little as $79.95. Check out our top picks below.

Neva Table Lamp — $99.95

The refreshing colour range (stone, blush, white, mint and tangerine) of the Neva Lamp brings a welcoming atmosphere to a room. Featuring elegant lines to fit a modern interior, it is made from Ash wood with a metal shade and base. The muted colour palette is right on trend and you can mix and match colours for an instant fashion update.

Gustavo Table Lamp — $249

The luxurious appeal of white marble in the new Gustavo Lamp is offset against a sophisticated matte black (or white) finish and a black and white braided fabric cord. The modernist classic appeal of this lamp is a great way to update your interior this winter.

Spence Table Lamp — $249

The minimalist capsule shaped silhouette of the Spence Lamp brings an avant-garde feel to a room. While the combination of natural tones and different finishes — of Ash wood with copper and amber glass, Ash wood with opal glass and matte black with smoke glass — adding an element of warmth. The mix of materials combine key decorator trends for the season.

Gaston Table Lamp — $119

The juxtaposition of raw concrete with either polished copper or brass achieves a beautifully balanced design that is both sophisticated and timeless. Perfectly suited to a modern interior, the bold metallic finish looks great against a dark backdrop.

Little Bishop: the simple and easy new way to hang lights

Post author By Jen Bishop
Post date June 24, 2015
No Comments on Little Bishop: the simple and easy new way to hang lights

The problem: Nothing but brass hooks to position and suspend cable hung pendant lights.

The solution: A hand crafted, hand cast, truly minimal form, designed for the job!

For years, Melbourne interior designer Dominique Hunter was frustrated with the makeshift method in which cable hung pendant lights were positioned and secured. The common solution at the time – a brass hook – was not appropriate for many of the great lights she used in her interiors.

So she enlisted the help of her partner Antony Richards to create an elegant and natural way to hang pendant lights in her projects. While managing their business Hunter & Richards, Antony used his spare time and background in jewellery design to carefully hand craft a hook that could position and suspend cable hung ceiling lights with no knot, clamp, bolt, screw or clip.

“We wanted a solution that would not stand out as a feature, one that would let the cable hang naturally” says Dominique. A decision made early in the project was to have the cable lock itself down. This lead to a form that was beautiful in itself, but when wrapped with the electrical cable it took a step back and let the design of the light fitting do its job, letting (pardon the pun) the light shine!

“There are so many cool light fittings around, and just because you’re not spending a lot on one doesn’t mean you have to compromise on the minor details of an interior project by using a cheap hook from the hardware store. We wanted something that was designed for this purpose alone, and be a solution that would suit any pendant no matter the budget or style of interior,” Dominique adds.

After some workshop experimentation, a prototype was born. A small run of cast reproductions allowed Antony and Dominique to test the design on one of their interior projects. They were very happy with the result, and decided to develop the product further.

Antony turned to the internet to raise funds and gauge people’s interest. The popularity of crowd funding made Kickstarter an obvious choice, with its ability to spread the word quickly and keep people updated on the status of the project proving to be a powerful tool in the birth of a new product.

Antony said: “The Kickstarter campaign was a great way to get people in on our story and to have them join our journey as a small, independent design practice doing good design work and getting their first product out to market. It’s also a great way for people to be first with a new product or to grab a bargain, as the ideas featured are usually priced a lot lower than existing products and established brands.”

The campaign was successful, raising $15,467 or 309% of the funding goal. This allowed the pair to complete the development of the Little Bishop and then move ahead with production. Next month will see the first batch of Little Bishop Pendant Light Hooks delivered to expectant Kickstarter backers, as well as buyers who’ve purchased from the online store.

1 Comment on An Issey Miyake table lamp for less than $300?

Yes, it’s true! Lamps by legendary Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake are now available in Australia through Artemide and some of them may even be in your budget!

The “IN-EI” range — Japanese for “shadow, shadiness, and nuance”– combines strong 3D geometry with an exceptional illumination capacity to diffuse light. Issey’s artistic vision, applied via a new 3D mathematical process, fuses the Japanese tradition of light with his unique ability to translate tradition into modernity. What’s more, they’re environmentally friendly.

My winter warmer picks for The Home and a stunning country photoshoot

Post date June 14, 2013
13 Comments on My winter warmer picks for The Home and a stunning country photoshoot

I was delighted when The Home asked me to pick some of my favourite products for a special winter warmer sale (starting today) and to join them on a photoshoot on location to bring them to life. Isn’t the end result stunning? I’m so in love with this clever photo!

I headed straight to some of my favourite places, like Cadrys rugs and Have You Met Miss Jones to pick some cosy and colourful items. I’ve always loved the look of layered rugs but never tried this in my own home so it was fun to pick several to work together. I think this shoot goes to show that mix and match can totally work, and it’s all about contrast and texture. And how about that lamp? I’m buying one of those babies for myself!

As for these beautiful images, a LOT of hard work and talent went into them behind the scenes, which I got to watch, but cannot take any credit for (apart from putting the flowers in the vase and making the tea for the cup on the tray…)! Joining me at the gorgeous property in the Hunter Valley were The Home’s stylist Marj Silva, photographer Lisa Zhou and buyer Emma Blomfield (also stylist at Nest Designs). They made that picture happen, and no, it really isn’t glamorous! Unless of course you count climbing on scaffolding and holding boards up on the other side of windows to stop pesky sun rays coming through and spoiling the shot glamorous!
